Trader and Firm Identification

Exchange Credentials

Contact the exchange to obtain the following
exchange credentials -- you must obtain one set of connection information
for each Order Router or customer membership that uses the LSE Gateway:

Separate SAIL user IDs per order routing session
for each exchange: LSE and IDEM. Note: users have access to Oslo
Bors products via the LSE session, and have access to IDEX energy
products via the IDEM session.

In TT User Setup, four product
groups are provided for each exchange. Access to these products
is configured per user.

Separate passwords for each user ID.

Two Exchange IP Addresses (one for LSE, one for IDEM).

Two Exchange ports (LSE and IDEM).

One Exchange-provided trader ID for LSE, and one for IDEM
for the SOLA® platform.

In
TT User Setup, configure an Operator ID for each trader ID. The Operator
ID must be set to the exchange-provided trader ID from the Exchange.
LSE, IDEM, and Oslo Bors require trader identification on all orders,
so the LSE Gateway requires an Operator ID for routing orders to these
Exchanges.

One trader ID can trade in multiple
sessions and have multiple logins to the same LSE Gateway at same
time.

The
exchange provides a unique, 8-character alphanumeric Trader ID that identifies
the trader. The trader ID is sent to the exchange and needs to be configured
as the Operator ID in TT User Setup (a password is not required).

When
creating gateway logins, the TraderId of the MGT can be user-defined
or the exchange-provided Trader ID. What’s required is that the Operator
ID must be set to the exchange-provided trader ID in order to trade.

TTORD Trader IDs

The following list describes TTORD trader
IDs on the LSE Gateway.

LSE Gateways support TTORDs.

You can map multiple TTORDs to one direct exchange trader.
However, in TT User Setup, create separate TTORDs for the LSE and
IDEM direct trader gateway logins (i.e., the same TTORD cannot map
to both LSE and IDEM direct traders.)

Note

A single TTORD trader cannot map to two
separate direct traders on the same gateway. Therefore, each trader
must use two TTORD logins that are each uniquely mapped to two different
direct traders for the same username. This configuration requires
X_TRADER 7.17.X and TT User Setup 7.17.X.

You must complete the following fields in TT User Setup to
map a TTORD proxy trader to a direct trader:

Exchange: The TT Gateway exchange-flavor (e.g., LSE-A).

Member: An up to 7-character value defined by the user

Group: A three-character value defined by the user.

Trader: The exchange-provided Trader ID.

The
exchange provides a unique, 8-character alphanumeric Trader ID that identifies
the trader. The trader ID is sent to the exchange and needs to be configured
as the Operator ID in TT User Setup (a password is not required).

When
creating gateway logins, the TraderId of the MGT can be user-defined
or the exchange-provided Trader ID. What’s required is that the Operator
ID must be set to the exchange-provided trader ID in order to trade.

Note

Each TTORD ID that connects to and trades
on the Exchange must use a unique clearing account.

FFT2 and FFT3 Fields

Traders can use the FFT2 and FFT3 fields for account management.
FFT2 field is mapped to the 'OwnerData' field in the exchange SAIL
API and sent to the exchange as part of all order messages.The LSE
Gateway does not require FFT3 for order routing and its value is
not sent to the exchange.

Exchange API Field Mapping

The LSE Gateway maps the account data in the Account# and Account
Type fields in X_TRADER® to
the following SAIL protocol messages sent to the exchange.

LSE Exchange Field Mapping

X_TRADER Field

Sent to Exchange as SAIL Message...
